Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
a “hard’ problem for a computer is one in which it cannot arrive at a solution in a reasonable amount of time
A
Random Substitution Cipher
B
Bug
C
Computationally Hard
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In computational complexity theory, a computational hardness assumption is the hypothesis that a particular problem cannot be solved efficiently (where efficiently typically means “in polynomial time").

Detailed explanation-2: -In 1936, the brilliant mathematician and codebreaker Alan Turing proved that it’s impossible for a computer to inspect any code that you give it, and correctly tell you whether the code will halt or run forever. In other words, Turing showed that a computer can never solve the Halting Problem.

Detailed explanation-3: -computational complexity, a measure of the amount of computing resources (time and space) that a particular algorithm consumes when it runs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Computation time (also called “running time") is the length of time required to perform a computational process. Representation a computation as a sequence of rule applications, the computation time is proportional to the number of rule applications.
